Technically

So I know these type of posts usually come with a great profile view of the pregnant woman posting them at the correct amount of weeks along... I don't have one. I have a GREAT profile shot of my belly from a month ago though, just not on this computer.

I am awesome.

So this will just have to do.

This is also from a month ago when we were in Utah at the Logan Temple. Not profile so you cant really tell how monstrous I was (or am) but after I saw this picture I decided that this dress needed to be retired until post-partum.  Seriously, I am sure I flashed a few family members my "inappropriates" while doing Mommy duties while I was at a cemetery. 

What was I thinking? 

I need to stick to maxi dresses.

On topic? Not great at that...

So technically I am supposed to be 25 weeks but Baby Boy has consistently been measuring and developing a week ahead the whole pregnancy. Here's to the hope that Doc will move up the due date a week. I have done this twice now and I can feel my body progressing much faster than it has with either girls pregnancies. I have been feeling braxton hicks contractions since I was 3months and they are getting harder and longer. He is sitting so low already it feels like he has already dropped. I am hoping at this point that he decides to at least stick it out until 37 weeks...

So I decided that I needed to write down how I am feeling and whats happening at this stage in pregnancy before I get any farther and haven't put anything down anywhere.

-I am in pain. Every joint and muscle is working overtime with this one and I am in constant pain. I never had these problems with the other 2 until 9 months.

-I have been craving Chocolate Milk and Corn dogs. Never at the same time but definitely daily.

-This is the point in my pregnancy where NONE of my clothes fit me. Not even the ones I have bought to fit me for a while since found out I was pregnant. I woke up Friday and NOTHING fit. I have a skirt some basketball shorts and a t-shirt. Its great...

-I am still sick. Almost all the time. I haven't thrown up in a few weeks but I got really close yesterday. The sickest I have been in weeks.

-This kid is vicious. Mean and strong. His kicks are already wreaking havoc on my ribs. He is so strong. Dale likes to shake my belly on the rare occasion that he is not active and I honestly get a little scared of waking the beast. I may or may not whine a little every time Dale starts to shake my belly.

-The girls are so excited for their little baby brother. Riley asks me every day "Mom, can we PLEASE go to the hosibal to get my baby brother out of your tummy tomorrow??" I wish it was that easy.

-He already has 2 names. Hiccup and Rudger. Rudger just happens to be his nickname according to Riley. Every time I say the name Rudger she corrects me and says "Its HICCUP mom!" Haha

-We are nowhere near ready for this boy but luckily we still have some time.
